Abstract: Let $M$ be a 5 dimensional Riemannian manifold with $Se{c}_{M}in[0,1]$, $Sigma$ be a locally conformally flat hypersphere in $M$ with mean curvature $H$. We prove that, there exists $varepsilo{n}_0>0$, such that $in{t}_{S}igma(1+H^2{)}^{2}ge8p{i}^2/3$, provided $Hlevarepsilo{n}_0$. In particular, if $Sigma$ is a locally conformally flat minimal hypersphere in $M$, then $Vol(Sigma)ge8p{i}^2/3$, which partially answer a question proposed by Mazet and Rosenberg cite{Ma&Rosen}. For an $(n+1)-$ dimensional rotationally symmetric Riemannian manifold $M$, we show that an immersed hypersurface $Sigma$ is locally conformally flat if and only if ($n-1$) of the principal curvatures of $Sigma$ are the same, which is a generalization of Cartan's result cite{Cartan}. As an application, we prove that if $M$ is (some special but large class) rotationally symmetric 5-manifold with $Se{c}_{M}in[0,1]$, and $Sigma$ is a locally conformally flat hypersphere with mean curvature $H$, the inequality $in{t}_{S}igma(1+H^2{)}^{2}ge8p{i}^2/3$ holds for all $H$.
